Arsenal legend Tony Adams has warned that this season's campaign could be as good as it gets for the Gunners.
Mikel Arteta's side pushed Manchester City to the final few weeks of the 2022-23 Premier League season but fell agonisingly short.
The Gunners had not been tipped to fight for the English top-flight crown but surprised in holding on to top spot for the majority of the season, before running out of steam towards the climax and ceding top spot to Pep Guardiola's side.
The north London side still achieved their primary goal of returning to the Champions League, but perhaps raised expectations for more than a runners-up place with their performances earlier in the season.
